After Covid thereโ€™s definitely way more mental illness. Sometimes it feels like your the only normal one. Yesterday some dude pulls out a dagger out of its sleeve to show everyone than puts it back. Another woman starts pacing back and fourth saying some nonsense about the world and holding a sign with writing of some nonsense. Homeless people have significantly increased. Seeing bums in places there never was before. Whole world is imploding.

Iโ€™d also be asking, why are so many people faking mental illness these days.
Itโ€™s like a new fashion trend.

People conflate mental/emotional weakness with mental illness.

Mental illness is a horrible thing, and conflating mental weakness with that is the move of those who abdicate personal responsibility for their lives.

The doctors definitely overdiagnose people these days, to prescribe more drugs and to get paid by the pharmaceutical company. Commission pay basically. Aka kickbacks.

Back in the day we were just call a person stupid or an *******, but these days apparently theyโ€™re mentally ill or whatever else. Anything these days can be classified as a condition that you need testing and drugs for, like if you smile too much Iโ€™m sure there is such a thing as smiling too much syndrome classified as a mental illness.

Another thing to remember is that these drugs like ***** they are the ones that make you crazy, the correct way to deal with mental issues is exercise, healthy living, healthy diet, not drugs which in the long term causes an even greater harm. Yes a ***** may relax you in the short term, but every action has an equal and opposite reaction, eventually all of that negative stuff youโ€™re feeling is going to build up and youโ€™re going to go and shoot up a school.

There are so many factors. All the highly processed foods we are poisoned with. Pharmaceutical drugs with dangerous side effects that are being absorbed by babies in the womb as well, then those kids come into life ****ed right out of the gate, Smart phones and the bombardment of constant 24/7 information at our fingertips, as well as complete dumbing down of society. Imagine being a 9 year old right now and you think that Tik Tok and doing stupid dances is "NORMAL" because you see your mother doing it all day instead of taking care of you. What kind of worldview is that? I can go on for days about why mental illness is not only extremely common, but "the new normal"

I'd rather be born in a time period where everyone had specific roles and purpose and contributed to a small community. Although we have it "easy" here, i'd rather be in a time period where i had to hunt for food and survive, then at night spend time around a campfire with a community of people laughing, and then die of a infection from a cut, then live in this modern day hellhole.

It seems everyone has some mental illness nowadays. I believe part of it stems from the unnatural lifestyles we lead in western society. Staring at screens all day, children not being properly socialized as they grow up on social media, the stresses of inflation, economic uncertainty, media propaganda being shoved down our throats constantly. I am alarmed at how many people I see in public who walk around with their eyes glazed over like zombies. Thatโ€™s not to mention the EXPLOSION of the homeless population in recent years. I used to see one or two homeless guys per week when I worked downtown. Now I see tents of them in the richest suburbs demanding handouts and getting aggressive.

Society is decaying.

Its easy to claim it and gain instant victim status. Plus you dont have to have any self control and can throw tantrums like a toddler and we are supposed to just accept it because you are nuts.

Add in that peoples diets are terrible and actually are making imbalances and you basically have the democrat party.

Do yourself a huge favor and dont associate with people who claim crazy or are crazy. Like if they say they are bipolar. It will never end well for you.

Think about it, when have you ever benefitted and appreciated talking to a crazy person? Never is the answer.
"To be a warrior is not a simple matter of wishing to be one. It is rather an endless struggle that will go on to the very last moment of our lives. Nobody is born a warrior, in exactly the same way that nobody is born an average man. We make ourselves into one or the other."-- Carlos Castaneda

Yeah there's all kinds out there nowadays. I'm out and about a lot and every time I go somewhere there's a bum walking around or asking for money. People will just walk up to you these days and tell you their whole life story and weird chit. It didn't used to be like this. It's like there's no shame anymore.

I've wondered this as well. Everyone is in their own little world and echo chamber now. We now spend the majority of our time online in these echo chambers rather than irl communities. Social media basically created a whole new reality.

It really is. I had a childhood friend who went through tons of mental, legal and social issues. To make a long story short that involves prison, addiction, bipolar disorder and ultimately being cut off by all of his friends and most family due to chitty behaviors. He disappeared for a while then popped up again last year as a tranny.

I knew this dude his entire life. He was not born as a woman in a manโ€™s body. I will never believe it for a second. He wrecked his life and found solace in an ostracized community of people with a victim mentality and self pity.

If you look at social trends, something like 25% of Gen Z identifies as LBGT+ while previous generations never cracked double digits. Itโ€™s programming.
